It turned out that a little
Blogger JerryRigEverything has already tested the strength of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, but now it’s time to understand how much the new product from the Korean giant is really made of titanium.
To do this, the blogger actually melted his smartphone. The bottom line is that the melting point of aluminum and titanium is very different: approximately 660 and 1660 degrees, respectively. Therefore, the smartphone, after dismantling the unnecessary parts, was placed in a small oven, where the temperature was sufficient to melt aluminum, but not sufficient to melt titanium.
As a result, as you can see, there are not very many titanium parts in the smartphone. These are covers for the side frames and a couple of additional small plates. This differs from Apple's approach, which used titanium and aluminum fusion technology for its new iPhone 15 Pro. As a result, in both cases titanium — it is more of a marketing and cosmetic element than a material of practical importance.
